Financial Aid/Tuition Scholarships are awarded to graduate students who demonstrate intellectual promise in the field of policy studies through past academic performance, GRE test scores, and previous relevant work experience. Applicants are automatically considered for these awards when the program receives a complete application. There are no additional forms to complete. The scholarship awards range in size and typically will not cover the entire costs of attending the program. If accepted and offered a scholarship, the details of the award will be included in the offer letter. Research and Teaching Assistantships Research Assistantships are a valuable opportunity for public policy students to gain exposure to actual research and projects being conducted at the Institute. Due to the fall semester class schedule for first-year students, we strongly encourage first-year students to hold off on accepting any type of research position until the spring semester. Faculty hire students as research assistants to work with them on specific research projects. Assignments are made after the student has accepted the offer to study at Johns Hopkins and has had interviews with faculty members. These positions are limited and very competitive so there is no guarantee that every student in the program will have a chance to work as a research assistant. Students interested in being considered for a research assistantship should follow the link below to the federal work-study program through the Office of Student Financial Services. Second-year students have opportunities to serve as teaching assistants in several core courses. The primary role of the teaching assistant is to evaluate student assignments and to be available for individual and group tutoring during the semester. To apply for financial aid, please visit the Office of Student Financial Services. |
